Nothing’s better than sitting around a good fire, talking, debating, cogitating and even ruminating about guns. As you and your amigos bare your souls as to what turns your crank, spewing exactly what it is your heart desires, miraculous things can happen.

That’s when I first heard about the mining wars, the Western Federation of Miners and Harry Orchard, and why these were an important part of my family history.
